Picture Tiger Shroff with his head shaved off! The young actor will be seen in a never-seen-before avatar in Sajid Nadiadwala’s Baaghi 2. Tiger will sport a closely-cropped hairstyle for the sequel. Baaghi was one of the most successful films of 2016 and Tiger’s high-voltage, action performance was clearly the highlight of the film.The film also had the actor sporting two distinct looks. While early in the film, Tiger played the ignorant, spoilt brat, the second half of the film showcased him as the disciplined martial artist.
Like Baaghi, the sequel will also have Shroff donning two distinctive looks. The first poster of the film unveiled the first look of the actor, while for the second avatar, Tiger will be shaving his head soon. Says a source, “He will be seen taking the bold step which very few actors have attempted. Actors like Aamir Khan and Salman Khan have previously shaved their heads for their films Ghajini and Tere Naam respectively. Ranveer Singh did it for Bajirao Mastani and Shahid Kapoor sported the look in Haider.”
This will be Tiger and Sajid’s third film together. Both their last ventures — Heropanti (Tiger’s debut film) and Baaghi — have proved to be extremely successful at the box office. With this film, they will attempt a hat-trick. The source adds, “Tiger has pushed himself to prepare for his roles. Be it learning varied forms of martial arts and dance, or attaining the perfectly chiselled body for his roles or shaving his head now, he is ready to do anything to get it right.”
Baaghi 2 will bring to celluloid, the pair of Tiger and Disha Patani for the first time. There has been huge excitement to witness the chemistry between the couple on screen. The first look of the film was released in May, which not only churned the excitement of the fans, but also received appreciation from all quarters. Produced by Sajid’s banner name, Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, and presented by Fox Star Studios, Baaghi 2 is directed by Ahmed Khan. The film is scheduled to release on April 27, 2018.
